784 George Street

Belying its simple structure, this 1875 2 and half storey house features two heavily ornamented oriel windows supported by corbels on the front façade, intricate gingerbread cornice work, and expressive "Y" knee-bracing columns. Its broad form, widespread decoration and kindred coach-house make this one of the more eclectic Second Empire style houses in the City and a unique addition to this, one of the finest heritage districts in Canada.
